Summary

Everyone knows about Natsukashii Hollow.

A place buried deep in the heart of the forest, lurking in its own shadows even during the day. Big enough to be noticed, small enough to remain hidden in plain sight. No one knew how it came to be, why it came to be, or ever explained why, upon saying the name, awareness pricked at the scalps of all who dared to until the feeling of being watched by a thousand menacing eyes could not be shaken away. No one knew, and no one asked.

When Odasaku disappears in the middle of a mission, Dazai takes it upon himself to find him. Truth unravels, fairytales become reality. The scale is balanced, and justice delivered. Nothing is as it seems to be.

Summary

Everyone has responsibilities they didn’t sign up for; Kaname Shizu resents leaving her family’s mechanic shop for a prestigious university to fulfill the wish of her late father. Now she has to balance her schoolwork with fighting reality-bending monsters as the new Kamen Rider, a replacement for the last one that died at the hands of Kronos and his Titans. At least she has a disarmingly-charming college girl to help her deal with both frustrating obligations.

This is an original series based off of Japan's massively-popular Kamen Rider franchise. The narrative structure closely follows that of the TV shows, albeit some creative liberties taken to make it work with written word. If you're not at all familiar with Kamen Rider, please enjoy the story of a teenager who's granted the powers and legacy of a superhero via a magic belt that lets her transform into "hero mode". Her duty as a Kamen Rider is to fight the reality-bending monsters connected to Kamen Rider's origin, while protecting the normal people they feed off of. Because it's a show aimed partially at younger demographics, the acting can be corny, angsty and melodramatic. And once you're hooked, you'll love every moment of it.

Summary

“Let’s make a bet.”Yuuri’s face falls flat, “a bet?”“That guy. You don’t think you can get a guy to stay with you for a week? I’ll raise you ten days and I guarantee you can’t get rid of him. You can do whatever you think it takes to get him to ghost you, dump you, whatever, go crazy. Up your personality to 1000%, but I bet you can’t scare him off.”

Viktor tried to protest, “this is ridiculous, Chris, I’m not-”“Ah ha! Perfect!”Viktor stepped forward and next to Christophe, “where?”Christophe gave him the knowing side eye and nodded in front of himself, “Asian cutie, straight ahead, blue tie.” When he saw Viktor’s reaction, he plucked his glass from Viktor’s clutches and went to walk away, but not before saying “I’m just gonna go talk with Mila. Make me proud, Vik. And remember, you have to make it last a while! Don’t let the media control your love life.”

Yuuri does everything he can imagine to turn this guy off, why isn't it working?!
